TWO YEAR ANNIVERSARY OF LOCKDOWN

1 God said to Jacob, “Get up! Go to Bethel and settle there. Build an altar there to the God who appeared to you when you fled from your brother Esau.”

Worship is about being grateful for what God has seen you through.

It prepares us for the future

There is a symbol of Covid for me maybe it is for you. The mask. Today this is what we build our altar out of.

Remember the past

when it became real, I was laid off, the Bay area lockdown but I had a flight to see charlotte

What were your feelings? do you remember your prayers?

This sunday I was trying to figure out what we do.

My worries is that out of habit out of mind no more church

our video system wasn’t great

upside down worship

I knew that if it wasn’t perfect

What were your feelings?

Write these down

In the first week we relied on Chaplain Roger to tell us what was happening in the hospital

Psalm 121:1 CSB

1 I lift my eyes toward the mountains. Where will my help come from?

There were people in my life I lost during the pandemic. Did you? Write them down

Bizarrely none from Covid.

I lost relationships.

I honestly went into this thinking I knew a lot and that I could trust things in addition to God.

I learned what it means to submit that trust first to God.

These two years have not just been about loss

They have been about addition.

Psalm 121 CSB

A song of ascents. 1 I lift my eyes toward the mountains. Where will my help come from? 2 My help comes from the Lord, the Maker of heaven and earth. 3 He will not allow your foot to slip; your Protector will not slumber. 4 Indeed, the Protector of Israel does not slumber or sleep. 5 The Lord protects you; the Lord is a shelter right by your side. 6 The sun will not strike you by day or the moon by night. 7 The Lord will protect you from all harm; he will protect your life. 8 The Lord will protect your coming and going both now and forever.
